[BUG] Full Screen Steam Videos
I just tried it on youtube to see if it's a fullscreen issue but it works fine with youtube in fullscreen on chrome. I am experiencing a bug that seems to so far only involve Steam videos run from the steam client (like watching a game's launch trailer). When I switch the video to full screen the controller changes to channel 2 (weird) and becomes unresponsive until I close the video (having to use my mouse) at which point it turns of the controller. When I restart the controller it goes back to normal.

edit: Windows 10 pro is my operating system since I imagine it's a quirk with 10.

PS. Thank you for this program and special thanks for taking the time to give the chatpad a go. It's really cool to mess around with and makes posting from the couch so much easier.

Things get even weirder when using big picture mode. The controller switches like before to channel 2 but doesn't become unresponsive and can still be used in channel 2. Turning off big picture mode and retun to desktop after this results in the controller then turning off like above.

edit: I`m to scared to unplug my chatpad since it took a few tries to get it working but I`m placing this here because I don`t recall this happening with just the gamepad.

Just an update. I uninstalled the chatpad driver and the controller is working properly.

Thanks for the feedback Cochise.

The issue where the controller is turning to channel 2 is the exact thing I was trying to avoid by turning off the controller whenever CC disables itself. It leaves the XInput driver in a bad state.

It's likely not an issue with Windows 10, but it does seem like the app fails to properly disable the controller before the chatpad driver kicks in.

I'm not sure I can do anything about it unfortunately :(
